This city’s populace lynched an administrator named Butheric after he arrested a popular charioteer. (10[1]-5[1])The dialects (-5[1])spoken in this city’s countryside formed the basis for the (10[1])Glagolitic (10[2])script (-5[1])created by two natives (10[1])of this city, (-5[1])the missionaries Cyril and (-5[1])Methodius. (-5[1])In 380, (-5[1])Theodosius I issued (-5[2])an edict in this city that made Nicene Christianity (-5[1])the Roman Empire’s state religion. A massacre of 7,000 (-5[1])people (10[1])in this city led Milan’s bishop, Ambrose, to force Theodosius (10[1])I to commit public penance.
